Great news from TeCrew’s Suraksita Yatra Expedition – SUMMIT!!!!
The crew are back in Delhi after three weeks in the Garhwal Himalaya of India.
During that time Florent Gex, Remi Peschier and Alex Marchesseau pulled off the first winter ascent, the first ski descent, and the first monoski descent of 7075m Satopanth.
“Nous sommes tres heureux, on a bien maigri et on soigne nos doigts qui ont souffert du froid.”
Florent, Remi and Alex will soon be leaving Delhi and head south to Mount Abu in Rajasthan for the second part of their project. And if you’re wondering what happened to Romain whom we initially reported as being a part of the expedition, he was unable to make the trip due to visa problems.
Envoi du gros!
Jolie descente, félicitation. Je crois que jean Noel Urban y était allé en 2003 aussi.
TeCrew response: “Yes we knew that he did it in 2003 (http://www.expeditions-urban.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=58&Itemid=145&lang=en) but no local people know it and it is not registred at the NIM (government institut of mounteneering).”
